In the present case, the trial court determined that because the income of the relators did not meet the defendant’s minimum income standard, the relators’ income was “insufficient” under the statutory exception. The court accepted the defendant’s business judgment as the basis for its finding that the statutory exception applied. We disagree with that conclusion because, as we have defined it, the statutory exception must be construed more narrowly to require a showing of “insufficient income” with respect to the potential *790tenant’s own ability to meet his or her personal rent obligation for that part of the rental not covered by section 8 rental assistance payments and to cover other obligations reasonably associated with the tenancy.
